Quantifying and improving the power efficiency of SAG milling circuits. Comminution circuits based on SAG (semiautogenous grinding) mills are not necessarily power efficient. So called critical sized particles can build up in the SAG mill charge, limiting mill throughput, and increasing unit power consumption.

The mill is filled with suitable grinding media, and the space between each of the disks is essentially an individual grinding chamber. As a result, the mill effectively comprises eight grinding chambers in series. The media is set in motion by the action of the grinding disks, which accelerate the media nearby radially toward the shell.
